Few Neat Hidden Features That Come Loaded In iOS 10

With iPhone 7 and 7 Plus, tech giant Apple Inc launched the latest version of their operating system i.e. iOS 10. Well, this OS comes with some fantastic innovations and improvements from the previous versions. IOS 10 offers superb features that will surely help you in accomplishing your routine tasks in an easy manner.

Here are the few features that have pumped up the iOS development process:

1. Apple Maps now Remembers Where You Parked the Car

If your iPhone or iPad is synced with the car's Bluetooth or Apple CarPlay, then the Apple Maps will quickly locate where your car is parked. When you will walk away from your car, Apple Maps will start sending notifications which will have information about your car's location. This feature won't work if the GPS is not active on your device and even in the parking garages where you don't get signals.

2. Clear All Notifications At Once with 3D Touch

If you receive tonnes of notifications on your phone and your lock screen keeps stacked up with messages, emails, and several other push notifications then this thing will surely help you in overcoming this mess. The iOS developers worked really hard to develop this feature. With iOS 10 you can quickly clear them all out with just a couple of taps. If you are using iPhone 6S or newer device, all you need to do is to just hard press the “X” icon and select “Clear All Notifications”.

3. Use the Camera As a Magnifying Glass

Have you ever wished that you could use your iPhone’s camera to read small words? Well, now you can use Apple Camera as a Magnifying Glass. All you need to do is to open Settings > General > Accessibility > Magnifier and set the toggle to On. Now, even ever you will triple tap the home button the camera will automatically open up with the slight magnification and then you just have to focus on the content which you're reading.

4. Close All Safari Tabs at Once with a Long Press

If you browse through tonnes of tabs on Safari then this function is just made for you. Apple has finally added a way to close all the tabs at once. From the new tab page, tap and hold Done button, pull up the menu through which you can quickly close all of your tabs.

5. Siri can now announce the Caller's name

In case you're driving or walking around and you receive a phone call, then you usually have to first stop, take out your phone to check who's calling. However, with this new feature you don't even have to look at your device because Siri will announce the name of the caller whenever they will ring you. Go to Settings > Phone > Announce Calls. Here you can also choose the options in which Siri will Always say the name when you are using Headphone, or while driving the Car.

6. Open Side-by-Side Tabs in Safari

The Safari browser now supports side-by-side tabs, which means you can open two websites at once. You can split view in one of the three ways:

• Just open up Safari, press and hold the tab button on the top right corner. After this, a pop-up will appear and select Open Split View.

• Drag a tab to the left or right side of the screen.

• Tap and hold on a link, then select Open in Spit View.

Note: This function only works on iPad Air 2, iPad Pro, and the iPad Mini 4.
